<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dgbjwc, post: 353060, member: 308&quot;]Well, someone did.&nbsp; Either a hobbyist or perhaps a small studio who bought the molds and decorated them for resale.&nbsp; It&#039;s even possible the jeweler commissioned them.&nbsp; Jewelry stores used to carry little gift items in addition to the usual jewelry lines.&nbsp; The local jeweler here used to carry some of the Giuseppe Armani, Swarovski, and Harmony Kingdom figurines until about fifteen or twenty years ago.&nbsp; Frankly I think it helped make the jewelry store more interesting but I guess the figurines couldn&#039;t pull their weight in sales.&nbsp; I really miss seeing these items.&nbsp; Now I&#039;d have to go to Chicago to find anything of the same caliber.&nbsp; The local Macy&#039;s used to carry some Waterford but they folded just a couple of weeks ago so there isn&#039;t even any quality glass around here anymore.</p><p><br /></p><p>It isn&#039;t terribly difficult to apply lace to a figurine but it does take a little practice.&nbsp; I can&#039;t really see the lace well enough to tell how good the application is but it doesn&#039;t look terribly well organized.</p><p>Don[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
